Someone I know who has a lot of grit is my Papa Dan. He has worked hard to get where he is in his career and to push through two surgeries. He started off working in the navy. After he retired from the navy he became a nuclear engineer at the power plant in Palo. Now, he is close to retirement at the plant and just does simple things. Unfortunately, because he worked hard and because of genes both his hips are replaced now. He pushed hard to do the stretches and work through both surgeries and both healing times. It may be hard to go back to work again after such a long break. So, he’ll have to push himself even more. Overall, Papa Dan has grit to get to his goals and to accomplish things.
